Tiny paintings

I really enjoy making tiny artworks…it’s a good technical exercise, to capture all the information necessary with minimum of marks. The first little painting is of my three children at the beach at sundown. They did not want to go home! I loved the red hues of the light and the corresponding inky blues in the shadows. The second is of the same scene on a different evening; a much moodier light. Oil on bamboo, 20.5cm x 15cm
